A parallel plate capacitor is charged from a cell and then isolated from it. The separation between the plates is now increased, then


Important Questions on Capacitor and Capacitance
In figure, half of the space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is filled with dielectric material of constant . Then which of the plots are possible?

Four identical metallic plates and are arranged in air at same distance from each other with their outer plates being connected together and earthed. If the plates and are connected with a cell of constant emf , then ratio of electric fields between the plates and variation of electric potential will be

Figure shows a capacitor having three layers between its plates. Layer is vacuum, is conductor, and is a dielectric. Which of the following change(s) will result in increase in capacitance?



Rows of capacitors containing capacitors, each capacitance , are connected in parallel as shown in the figure. The potential difference across is , then

The figure shows an arrangement of four identical rectangular plates , and each of area . Find the charges appearing on each face (from left to right) of the plates. Ignore the separation between the plates in comparison to the plate dimensions.

A parallel plate capacitor is charged as shown ( is given). A metal slab with the total charge is placed inside the capacitor as shown. The thickness of the slab is . The distance between the top plate and the top of the slab is , and the distance between the bottom plate and the bottom of the slab is . Each plate is grounded through a galvanometer as shown. Find the charge that passes through each galvanometer after both switches are closed simultaneously.
